I'm looking to start a Mexico or South America game, something where I'll mess around regionally but not really intervene in the main event.

Do you guys keep the default Expert AI settings when you play like this? I like to watch the wider war unfold and have some suspense for at least a few years. Last time I played EAI as Japan and Germany couldn't even take down Poland, so WW2 sort of fizzled out.

Basically I'm trying to figure out if any majors should be buffed when left to their own devices.
